The Essence of Dhyana

This exquisite statue portrays Lord Buddha in the Dhyana Mudra, the gesture of meditation. Also known as the Yoga Mudra, it represents the state of perfect equilibrium and profound stillness of mind attained during meditation. The hands rest gently in the lap, the right hand placed atop the left, with the thumbs lightly touching, forming a mystic triangle. This posture symbolizes the union of method and wisdom, male and female energies, leading to enlightenment. It is the same posture Siddhartha Gautama assumed beneath the Bodhi tree when he achieved Nirvana, becoming the Buddha. The serene countenance, with eyes gently closed or lowered, reflects inner peace and complete detachment from worldly distractions.

Brass and Inlay: A Harmonious Blend

Crafted from brass, a metal prized for its durability and resonance, this statue has been meticulously brought to life. The cool gleam of the metal provides a beautiful contrast to the vibrant inlay work adorning the Buddha's robe and lotus base. The meticulous detailing speaks to the dedication and skill of the artisans, echoing the deep respect for the Buddha's teachings. Inlay work, the process of embedding contrasting materials into a base, has been used across cultures for centuries to enhance the beauty and value of sacred objects.

Symbolism and Significance

Beyond the Dhyana Mudra, every aspect of the statue carries profound meaning. The tightly curled hair symbolizes the Buddha's renunciation of worldly pleasures and his commitment to the ascetic life. The Ushnisha, the cranial protuberance on the top of the head, represents his wisdom and spiritual attainment. The elongated earlobes are a reminder of his princely past, when he wore heavy jewels, but they now symbolize his detachment from material possessions. The serene expression on his face reflects the inner peace that comes from conquering the cycle of suffering. The lotus base, or Padma Peetha, symbolizes purity, spiritual awakening, and faithfulness. Just as the lotus flower rises unsullied from muddy waters, so too does the Buddha rise above the imperfections of the world.

A Touch of Divinity for Your Space

This statue is more than just an object of art; it is an invitation to cultivate inner peace and wisdom. Place it in your meditation space, living room, or office to create an atmosphere of tranquility and mindfulness. Let it serve as a constant reminder of the Buddha's teachings on compassion, wisdom, and the path to enlightenment. Allow its presence to inspire you on your own journey to self-discovery and inner harmony.

How to keep a Brass statue well-maintained?

Brass statues are known and appreciated for their exquisite beauty and luster. The brilliant bright gold appearance of Brass makes it appropriate for casting aesthetic statues and sculptures. Brass is a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc. This chemical composition makes brass a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material. Due to these properties, Brass statues and sculptures can be kept both indoors as well as outdoors. They also last for many decades without losing all their natural shine.

Brass statues can withstand even harsh weather conditions very well due to their corrosion-resistance properties. However, maintaining the luster and natural beauty of brass statues is essential if you want to prolong their life and appearance.

The best and simplest way to maintain a brass statue is to clean it at least twice a week using a soft cloth or cotton rag. This will prevent dust from accumulating on the surface. Dusting is especially important for outdoor statues since it is prone to dust accumulation much more than indoors.

To give a natural shine and luster to the statue, you may apply coconut or olive oil using cotton on every portion. You can use a toothbrush to get to the small crevices but do not be too harsh. This will make the brass statue appear fresh and new with a polished look.

In case you have a colored brass statue, you may apply mustard oil using a soft brush or clean cloth on the brass portion while for the colored portion of the statue, you may use coconut oil with a cotton cloth.

Brass idols of Hindu Gods and Goddesses are especially known for their intricate and detailed work of art. Nepalese sculptures are famous for small brass idols portraying Buddhist deities. These sculptures are beautified with gold gilding and inlay of precious or semi-precious stones. Religious brass statues can be kept at home altars. You can keep a decorative brass statue in your garden or roof to embellish the area and fill it with divinity.
